Today, we are excited to announce the release of StackRox Detect and Respond 2.0, our container-native runtime security product, and StackRox Adversarial Intent Model, the foundation for our ongoing threat research and threat detection strategy. While our previous 1.3 release focused on providing greater flexibility, configurability, and scalability for customers, version 2.0 expands the breadth and depth of our threat detection capabilities and adds advanced automation features to make it easier for enterprise customers to protect their container environments, whether they are running on-premise or in popular cloud service providers such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Compute Platform (GCP), Microsoft Azure and others.

Today we are excited to announce a new partnership with Google Cloud Platform (GCP) to jointly deliver end-to-end security across the cloud-native stack for any enterprise. Together, StackRox and Google will accelerate customers’ adoption of secure, containerized application architectures. No company knows more about containers than Google. They have run containers in production for over a decade, and pioneered an ambitious new approach to enterprise computing at scale. Google originated Kubernetes and continues to be its largest contributor in every release, even after more than 58,000 commits.

Today we are excited to announce that version 1.3 of the StackRox platform is now generally available. Every new release adds a number of significant features, but 1.3 in particular enables greater flexibility, configurability, and scalability when securing some of the world’s largest enterprises running containers in production. We previously wrote that threat protection in container environments has to start with visibility and detection. This release delivers several advancements to detection rules, policies, and deployment automation that enable StackRox to discover a broader set of threats, faster.

This week marked my seventh Black Hat. Every year, I look forward to the event as a time to share industry news and developments – and to connect with my infosec friends who gather in Vegas at this time each year for B-Sides Las Vegas, Black Hat and DEF CON. This time, my trip to Black Hat was particularly memorable and rewarding because I got to bring StackRox to the show at an exciting time.
